I too, had my RNY Nov 6th however, my pouch is to big!!!! After a slow loss (32 lbs) my dr ran some tests and discovered my pouch was not the size it should be :( I go back to surgery July 17 and again, I'll have to do the liquids, mushies and then solids! I've got about 40lbs more I'd like to lose so hopefully this will get me there!

Congrats to those who have has an awesome success!!! I was looking forward to a Tummy Tuck this year but looks like that's not going to happen & I'm okay with that, I'm not giving up!!!

Yesterday jogged twice. I'm doing couch to 5km. One of my goals is to be a runner. Seriously this is going to happen. So my last jog was with my daughter age 11. Great kid great mommy supporter of my changing life to healthy living. She jogged with me. Last night she was dying to keep up. She did but you could tell she was done. My program said you have one minute that means 6 minutes cook down to walk. Ok jogged it and went an extra minute. I did 1 km no stopping. I could have gone more but she was done. So I stopped. I finally had control over my breathing and my heart wasn't racing like I was dying. I was good. I love my Ryn and all the possibilities that are open now to my life. I can do it and I know I can now. I didn't give up. I just finished week 3 but I had to do week 1 and 2 for two weeks since I couldn't get a grip and never once did I give up no matter of the pain or how slow I had to jog or how no one wanted to go with me. I stuck it out. I'm crying while writing this because being obese sucks and life sucked and I made excuse no to excerise go to the mall outings . Now I'm back and I feel a renewed and a better person. Honestly if I don't lose anymore wait who cares I am slowly achieving my goal of healthy living and dedication to achieving a better me . I'm still the same person just a healthier choice that you for all your support kicks in the butt and just listing. I appreciate all of you. Oook crying stopped just had to share

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
